Blue Dog at the Lone Branch - 2009 Oil on linen
I fell in love with the Blue Dog on a trip to New Orleans. I almost got a tatoo of her but friends tricked me into something else. ( long story)
The Blue Dog story:
One particular Cajun legend, the loup-garou, became the inspiration for the first Blue Dog. Painted for a book of Cajun ghost stories (Bayou, Inkwell, 1984), Rodrigue chose a photo of his studio dog Tiffany who had died several years before as his prototype. Rodrigue painted this first eerie Blue Dog a scruffy, pale grey-blue, with red eyes.
